The couple exchanged glances and Lara turned back to him and replied. “Ok, since you already know the reason we're here. I'd like to know what happened.”“Why did you give us a deal and call it off almost immediately without any reason? Is it that you were not sure at first or you made a mistake?”“We didn't make any mistakes." The man replied in a serious tone and Lara could sense arrogance in his tone.What was that supposed to mean?“I don't understand. Were you guys joking with us or what? We're both big time celebrities and you shouldn't mess with us like that." Kyle's voice was already going high but Lara patted him on the laps, calming him down.The man, on the other hand, only stared at Kyle as the latter was raising his voice and bragging about their accomplishments.Well, that was not his problem. He was only following the orders given to him by his Boss.After Kyle was done talking, the man gave them an intense glare before sighing. “Actually, it's my boss who asked me to c

After a moment of silence, Kyle replied to her. “Let's leave this place at once. We'll go to my Manager's office and find out if he was able to get projects for us with the other movie producers.”“This is just a little setback in our lives and I'm sure we'll get past this stage." Lara nodded her head in agreement and Kyle started the car and drove off.Meanwhile, still in the woods, Prince was busy with his work as an errand guy at the movie location. He started that job because he knew that Lara and Kyle would show at the place to find out why they were cut off from Royal productions.While he was running around and making sure that things were going well, he noticed the way Avery and Molly were staring at him.Avery and Molly were still working with his production because he didn't have any reason to cut off all deals with them.It was right that they've flirted with him in the past when he was still married to Lara.Prince was Lara's personal assistant for some time. And while th

Prince did not speak further and decided to swallow the threats he was about to make.There was no point threatening the girls as they'd hear from him if they run their mouths and speak out of turn.Avery and Molly stared back at him in silence with their mouths open.After that, Prince turned around and began to walk away.“Something happened between them. If not, he won't be so defensive.” Avery muttered as soon as Prince was out of sight.“Yeah, that's right. We have to find out what happened between them. There's also something going on between Lara and Kyle and we should find that out as well.” Molly added and they both looked at themselves and nodded.“And when we get any interesting information, we can just sell it to the media." The girls were not sure how to get the information about Lara and Kyle so they decided to follow Prince.They believed that Prince knew something and they intended to find out what he knew.Prince, who had walked away from them, boarded a taxi and was

Prince just stood at a spot and started laughing.“A thief and a fool." He muttered to himself after he stopped laughing.His action got the girls more confused and they wondered what was going on.Why would the taxi driver ditch Prince just like that?Avery stepped forward and inquired. “I hope you haven't paid him already? And if you want, we can drop you off wherever you're going." Avery's offer of help was an excuse to find out where Prince was going. “No, thank you." Prince replied to her. He gave each of them an intense glare for the last time and warned.“Don't you dare follow me again or there will be consequences." With that, he walked out on them and boarded the next taxi he saw.When Prince met up with his friend, George, the latter gave him a confused look before inquiring.“What took you so long? Do you know that I've been waiting for you for more than thirty minutes." "I was being followed by some nosy girls so I had to ditch them before coming here.” Prince replied

The call finally went through and Mr. Patrick answered from the other end of the line.“Hello, Sir. I'm sorry for taking time to answer your call. I was so busy and…”"It's ok.” Prince did not allow him to finish. He already knows how busy the man can be."I just wanted to find out about something.”Prince turned to the direction where the strange man sat but he pretended to be doing something else, pausing the video he was making.Prince turned back to George, completely oblivious of whatever was going on.George, on the other hand, was busy on his phone and didn't notice anything.None of them suspected anything wrong.“What do you want to find out about?" Mr. Patrick inquired."It's about my brother. When was the last time you sent some money to him?”Mr. Patrick remained silent and quickly checked his account book."It's just a few days ago. The day you called me and asked that I send some money to him. Even though he was not due to receive his allowances.” Patrick replied to him.

George pulled over a little distance away from the restaurant and turned to Prince.“It won't be too suspicious if we stop before the restaurant. You won't want your former colleagues to give you a suspicious look.”"Especially when they see you alight from such a car.”George's car was a luxurious one and if Prince's former colleagues saw him in it, they'd raise eyebrows at him and ask questions.He was not ready to answer anybody's question.“Alright, drop me off here and I'll walk the remaining distance." George pulled over by the side of the road and Prince alighted. “See you later." As he zoomed off, Prince started towards the direction of the restaurant and the strange man's car continued to follow him.He got into the restaurant and was greeted by some of his colleagues and they were happy to see him, except for one person.It was his rival during the time he was working at the place as a waiter.Steve never liked Prince because he was regarded as the best staff.A lot of cus

“And you should know something. If you continue like this, you'll find yourself without a job one day. And you might not be able to get another anywhere else.”"Just be careful how you treat people, especially those who have done nothing wrong to you.” Prince concluded. He glared at Steve for a while before walking away.While Prince made his way to the diner hall, Steve remained motionless at a spot.He could not move an inch and kept pondering on Prince's words.He even had to ask himself why he hated Prince. At the end, he got the answer to his own question.There was no reason for the hatred towards him . It's just that Prince was liked by people. Unfortunately, no one notices him at all.After a long pause, Steve rolled his eyes and muttered to himself. “Whatever. You're in no position to render me jobless.”With that thought in mind, he walked away from the lobby and went back to work.Prince got to the dining hall and his eyes caught the strange man stealing glances at him in a

By the time Lara and Kyle came out of his Manager's office, they were completely exhausted and it was almost dusk. All the bad news they'd received that day was already weighing them down.Just like the previous day, it had been bad news and more bad news.Many other producers were no longer willing to work with them. Just like Royal productions, they would no longer be working with them.Everything was happening so fast and they could not comprehend it.If someone was after their careers, then that person must be very powerful.As they got into Kyle's car, they both sat in it totally lost in their thoughts.After a moment of silence, Kyle started the car and began to drive to Midday avenue, Lara's home.“What are we going to do about the situation?" Lara interrupted his train of thoughts. Kyle let out a deep sigh and quickly glanced at her with a long face. “I don't know. We just have to keep trying or we'll soon be forgotten celebrities and our careers, dead." Kyle's voice was co

The strange lady's voice was a little loud and Prince had to turn around to find out if people were looking at them.When he saw a few necks turn in their direction, he sighed deeply and lowered himself to whisper to the Lady.“I changed my mind, I think we should have this conversation in your car.”He was avoiding anything they'd make people give him a suspicious look.After that, he took his coffee and started towards the door.The strange lady who understood Prince's action smiled to herself and stood up as well, following Prince behind.They both got into her car and she went straight to the point.“Prince Young, my name is Alicia Clayton. I was your highschool crush so you have to remember who I am.”“High school crush." Prince muttered to himself while casting her a questioning glare.He scrutinized her one more time, trying to recall his times in high school. Unfortunately, he could not remember who the young lady was.Although the name rang a bell, he still could not place a

Kyle and his father spoke for a few more minutes before he ended the call. He knew that his parents would not approve of his relationship with Lara if they heard what he did.He took another man's wife and got her pregnant. That was not an honorable thing to do.“We'll soon be back so you can tell us all that is happening over there." His father said to him before hanging up the call.A while later, Kyle got home and slept off immediately.It had been a long day for him and he was already exhausted, both physically and even mentally.All that was happening was draining him up.***The next morning Prince woke up to a message from a strange number. He took up the phone and read the message.“I know your real identity, Prince Young. If you don't come and meet me now, I'm going to reveal it to the world.”"I'll be waiting for you at a coffee shop in town so don't keep me for too long.”As Prince read the message, he smiled to himself and let out a dry chuckle.He knew that things would c

Kyle sighed in frustration and quickly dipped his hands into his trousers pocket in search of his wallet. Unfortunately, it was not there.He searched fruitlessly for it but could not find the wallet.The waiter was about to involve security but Kyle stopped him.“Wait. I'll call my driver to get the money. I must have misplaced my wallet.” Kyle cursed that day and all the frustration it had brought to him and was still bringing.He could not recall how he misplaced his wallet and because of it, he was being humiliated by a mere waiter.On the other hand, the waiter glared at him and turned around. He walked up to the security and whispered something to him.“Don't let him leave this place. He's yet to pay for his drinks." The security guard nodded at the waiter.While the waiter went back into the bar, Kyle quickly put a call across to his driver.The man answered the call and earned himself a shout from Kyle. “Get your ass over here at the bar right now. Make sure to come with some

“Do you think there's someone out there who's after you? And what does the person want from you?”“I have no idea." While they drove home, Prince continued to think about the earlier incident.The man must have been ordered by someone to follow him around. But what was their motive?He was keeping his identity a secret. However, it looked like it was not a secret to some people aside from the ones who knew him already.Some people could be plotting against him.“Well, we're going to find out who's coming after me. I'm not a show off so how was this person able to find me out?" Prince muttered, his gaze fixed on the road before them.Turning to George in a serious face, he said to him. “We have to find out who's after me before they have the chance to do something bad against me. Or any of us." “Of course." George nodded a few times and continued. “Zane is capable of getting any information about them. We just need a little time for him to do his job." Although he was worried, Princ

“What nonsense." She muttered while breathing heavily. She was so mad at Avery and everything.She was mad at Prince for going ahead to spread such news because he was fortunate enough to get a job at the place.Lara had already concluded that it was no other person but Prince who must have spread the news.After a moment of silence, she let out a long sigh and fell on her bed. She was exhausted and just needed to sleep. Perhaps, she'd feel better by morning and find ways to tackle the problems in her life.Lara had managed to close her eyes when her phone began to ring again. This time, it was Kyle and he had received a call as well.Gradually, she reached for the phone and answered the call.“Hey babe. What's up with you? Why are you not sleeping yet? I was trying to catch some for myself when your call came in." Lara muttered sleepily.“Have you heard what's going on?" Kyle asked her and the tone of his voice forced her to stay awake.“What is going on, Kyle?” Lara quickly sat up,

The place went completely silent for a while.After some time, Lovelyn turned to her younger daughter and they exchanged glances.They still could not comprehend what Lara was trying to say to them.“I don't quite understand what you're saying. Please explain better." Lovelyn said to Lara, her eyes fixed on Lara in a serious gaze.“Mom, if we don't do anything about the situation, we might find our career dead soon and everyone will forget us." “That's what it means." Lovelyn’s mouth opened and she lifted her hands, putting them on her head. She knew exactly what that meant. It means that the money would stop coming.If Lara no longer gets movie roles, she'd be completely irrelevant. There would be no more and wealth in flow.She won't be able to afford the luxurious lifestyle that she was already used to.Lovelyn only owns a boutique and the boutique won't be able to fund her lifestyle. Especially if Lara no longer gives her money to add to the business.If they have to depend com

Lara got down from the car and Kyle pulled her into his arms in a tight hug.“I'm sorry honey.” He apologized as he reached for her forehead and planted a kiss on it."I didn't mean to hurt you with my words. I just overreacted and I promise it won't happen again.”"Are you sure?” Lara stared into his eyes, waiting for a response.“I'm sure." Kyle nodded his head and forced out a smile. “We'll go through this together and see the end of it." “I believe that if we work together, we'll be able to sort things out. And in the end, things will go back to the way they were." “Ok, we'll work together and deal with the issue." Lara was anxious and so was Kyle. They didn't know who their enemy was so it was going to be difficult to tackle the situation.The have to know the source of their problems before they can deal with it. But for now, they have no idea who was pulling them down.“And about our wedding. I totally understand that we should tackle the matter at hand before planning our w
